A number of factors such as growing public and private initiatives to increase awareness about early breast cancer screening, rising incidences of breast cancer, increasing demand for use of minimal or negligible doses of radiation, and rapid growth in aging population are driving the growth of the global Breast Imaging Technologies Market. On the other hand, factors such as side effects of exposure of radiations received during application of ionizing breast imaging technologies and high investment and installation costs are restricting the growth of the this market. However, increasing government investments in novel breast imaging technologies and emerging economies including India and China offer new growth opportunities for the market players.

As of 2014, North America is estimated to hold the largest share of the global BreastImagingMarket, followed by Europe. However, the Asia-Pacific market is expected to grow at highest CAGR of 10.2% from 2014 to 2019. A number of factors including rising incidences of breast cancer, increasing focus on early screening of breast cancer, and development of healthcare infrastructure are stimulating the growth of the Breast Imaging Technologies Market in the Asia-Pacific region.
